Oil pressure + temp parts (need to identify)

[Sparticus]

Ok, trying to put all the remaining bits and bobs in my engine bay so i can essentially tick it off the "to do" list. Have a pile of stuff dax sent to me in a bag and trying to guess what it is, but need confirmation...

Clockwise direction in the photo :
1/ Voltage stabiliser (top right)
2/ Water temperature sender (bottom right)
3/ Remaining items are for the oil pressure and temperature

?

Another question is, see the square brass t-piece thingy... which bit goes to which bit? e.g. does the temp sender screw into the top, male-male fitting screw into the side (with small circle facng the oil pressure hose), t-piece screw into the blue female/male fitting and it screws directly into the manifold (to the pasenger side of the distributor)?

As always your sagely advice is appreciated

Cheers

The T-piece screws into the back of the chevy block next to the dissy, then the oil pressure switch screws into the T-peice on the side. On top of the T-peice you screw an oil pipe that goes to your oil pressure gauge.

The blue adaptor is for the temp sensor that you can either fit in the top of intake manifold or in the head next to the header. Make sure you use plummers tape on threads or it will leak.

Hi Si

The voltage stabiliser fits to the back of the fuel gauge (the wiring to the fuel gauge will then make sense)

The water temp sender screws into blue adaptor then into the top of the inlet manifold (I had to swap the plug with a hole next to the headers (between 1 and 3 I think) or the wiring wouldn't reach)

The square brass t-piece thingy... fits into the block next to the distributor. I had to grind the square off because of the inlet manifold. I put the oil pressure switch in the top and the male-male adaptor on the side with small circle facing the oil pressure hose. This then goes directly to the oil pressure gauge (remember the two small washers at each end)

I can send some photos if it will help

Ditto previous replies

[dave]

You found them then Si?

P.S. Ditto the above.

Fitted them all tonight, happy as a pig in the preverbial Had to take the flapdisc to the T-piece and make it round at the bottom, but its all gone together well.

PS now off to research my remaining electrics for the engine bay etc. Brace yourselves for me being dim and asking lots of new questions in a post later on about the electrics.
